Streaming to USB port in 991.1
Does anyone know whether it’s possible to stream audio (e.g., Spotify, Pandora, etc.) from a cellphone or laptop to the car’s PCM though the USB (“iPod”) port in a 991.1? Or, is it necessary to use an adapter DAC (eg, as you’d use with headphones) to convert the cellphone or laptop digital output to analog and stream through the analog Aux port?

No.
That port is used for mass storage (usb stick style) or AA/Carplay. You'll have to use the 3.5mm for this.

You can play music through a USB cable or through Bluetooth. I plug my iPhone into the USB port and am able to play (Apple) music through the audio system. Simply select "iPod" as the source and it should work. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I have the Burmester system.

Yes. I have CD quality music files stored on my new iPad Pro (now with a USB-C connector, so I need to get a new cable that’s USB-C to USB-A.) But also, I stream Amazon HD and other better than lossy audio. So I want to avoid AuxBT if possible. Not that I’ll likely hear a difference in the car, but I want to try it.
